From 2004 to 2006, fuel ethanol grew by 26% and biodiesel grew by 172%. As biofuel production continues to expand, investments in capacity expansion and research and development have been made. The 2008 food crisis emphasized the need to re-examine biofuel consequences. Biofuels remain an important renewable energy resource to substitute for fossil fuels, particularly in the transportation sector, yet biofuels’ success is still uncertain. The future of biofuels in the energy supply mix relies on mitigating potential and improving the environmental gains. This book brings together leading authorities on biofuel from the World Bank to examine all of the impacts of biofuel (economic, social, environmental) within a unified framework and in a global perspective, making it of interest to academics in agricultural and environmental economics as well as industry and policy-makers. | 出版日期 | Book 2014 | 关键词 | Alternative fuels; Biofuels; Climate change; Fossil fuel; Greenhouse gas; Oil crisis | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4939-0518-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4939-5517-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4939-0518-8Series ISSN 0929-127X Series E-ISSN 2511-8560 | issn_series | 0929-127X | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 2014 |
